The maid maintained her smile and said to Jian Yixue with even greater respect, "Master Jin has something to attend to and won't be back for dinner. Please eat first, there's no need to wait for him."
"oh."
Without thinking much, Jian Yixue walked straight to the dining table and sat down.
The maid was quite surprised. Jian Yixue's attitude towards Master Jin was already good; she addressed him by his name directly, and now she was unmoved even after hearing the news that Master Jin was not coming back.
Is it true that they don't care? Or...?
Seeing that Jian Yixue was already sitting at the dining table, she didn't have time to think and quickly turned around and went to the side door to have someone bring the food over.
Soon, the servant was followed by several people carrying dishes as they entered.
One of the girls, who had delicate features and whose hair was tied up in a bun, quickly threw something into Jian Yixue's arms when no one was looking as she passed by, and then left as if nothing had happened.
Jian Yixue also hid the item with lightning speed, then finished her meal quickly as if nothing had happened, and prepared to go back to her room to see if it was what she wanted.
Just as Jian Yixue got up to leave, the maid secretly called her back.
"Miss, the master has sent some clothes for you. Would you like to take a look and choose some?"
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue waved her hand, "No need, I can't accept something for nothing."
He turned and strode out of the living room.
Back in her room, Jian Yixue's cold expression from downstairs was completely different; her face was filled with excitement.
Jian Yixue quickly took off her shoes and sat down on the bed.
She quickly pulled the package that the maid had secretly slipped to her from her pocket, and when she saw what was inside, a smile almost spilled out from the corner of her mouth.
It really is a cell phone!
Jian Yixue was overjoyed, feeling indescribably happy.
She picked up the SIM card from the side, inserted it into the phone slot, and quickly turned on the phone.
The few dozen seconds it took for the computer to boot up felt like the longest time of her life.
After turning on her phone, Jian Yixue quickly composed a text message and sent it out.
——
Meanwhile, Ye Mohan, who was listening to Lin Yi's report on the people he had been looking for that day, suddenly found his phone ringing in the room. The phone had been sitting in his pocket for ages and never rang.
Lin Yi immediately stopped reporting. Ye Mohan frowned, then seemed to think of something and quickly picked up his phone to check.
When he saw the unknown number on his phone screen, his brows furrowed even more, and he glanced at it before preparing to put the phone down.
Then, seemingly unwilling to give up, he unlocked the phone and opened the text message. When he saw the content of the message, his thick eyebrows relaxed.
Jian Yixue: "I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Take good care of yourself. I'll come back for a checkup. If I find that your condition has worsened, I won't talk to you anymore."
After reading the message, Ye Mohan felt much less worried knowing that Jian Yixue was safe and sound.
Hearing her say that she couldn't get away, I couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Where are you? I'm coming to find you."
Ye Mohan looked worried and sent a text message.
On the other side, Jian Yixue, who was happily waiting for a reply on the bed, was getting a little anxious after waiting for a long time without receiving a response.
Just as she was about to risk making a call, the text message ringtone she had been longing for rang.
Jian Yixue couldn't hide her surprise and quickly picked up her phone to browse through the information.
She was overjoyed to see Ye Mohan's caring words.
When he thought of Ye Mohan's injury, he immediately rejected his idea.
"Don't come. You're injured. Don't be impulsive. I'm fine, I'm not hurt, I can get out by myself. Wait for me, I'll be back soon."
Click send.
Jane Yixue leaned back and lay on the bed with her coat spread out.
She stayed because she knew this was Jiang Xuanjin's stronghold, and she didn't know how many people were stationed outside. She didn't want Ye Mohan to be in danger.
Furthermore, Jiang Xuanjin kidnapped her but did nothing to her, so she thought it would be best to leave unharmed.
Moreover, no one knows just how dangerous the hidden world around Ye Mohan really is; it's best to be careful.
Upon seeing the text message, Ye Mohan frowned, his face showing disapproval.
Seeing the changes in Ye Mohan's expression, Lin Yi, who was standing beside him, had a bold guess in his mind and tentatively asked, "President, is it news about Madam?"
Just as Ye Mohan was pondering how to reply to the message, Lin Yi interrupted him, making him even more upset. He looked at Lin Yi with cold and displeased eyes.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yi broke out in a cold sweat and felt extremely guilty.
Did he guess wrong?
He sent people to search all day, but they didn't find a single clue. He finally risked his life to come and report, but it seems he said something wrong and displeased the president.
Lin Yi lowered his head, preparing to make amends, "I will immediately send more people to search for Madam."
Not far away, Ye Mohan's still icy voice came, "No need, everyone has been withdrawn. Continue preparing for what happened before."
Lin Yi had three big question marks above his head.
Has the lady been found?
Still haven't found it?
He couldn't quite figure it out.
However, he also understood that now was not a good time to ask questions, so he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, sir, I will arrange it right away."
He then closed the door and left in a hurry.
Ye Mohan sat on the sofa, lost in thought for a long time. He was really worried and decided to make a call to ask.
On the other side, Jian Yixue waited and waited but didn't receive a reply from Ye Mohan. She thought that Ye Mohan did not agree with her idea, so she was also preparing to call him to comfort him.
Just as Jian Yixue opened the dial pad, Ye Mohan's phone number appeared on her phone screen.
